Shivratri decoration at home with positivity

Maha Shivaratri is one of the most significant festivals for Hindus across the world. It is believed that on this special occasion, the earth’s northern hemisphere is positioned in a way that promotes a natural magnification of energy in humans. Thus, being awake all night with a vertically erect spine is considered to be an important ritual for Maha Shivaratri. Other rituals include fasting the whole day and bathing Lord Shiva with milk. So to celebrate this auspicious festival, we bring to you some simple yet beautiful Shivratri decoration ideas. Elevate the positive vibrations in your home and make your space festive-ready for this spiritually powerful occasion.

Some also believe that Lord Shiva married Goddess Parvati on this day, others believe that this was the day when Shiva confronted all his enemies. Many believers celebrate it as a night of stillness because Shiva became one with Mount Kailash on this very day. Whatever your belief, these Shivratri decoration ideas are sure to attract pious vibrations and elevate the spiritual quotient of your modern home.
